  • Worms in Dogs
    Worms in Dogs Overview Worms are a very common problem and most pet dogs will catch them at some point in their life. This article focuses on intestinal worms (worms that live in the guts). If you own a pet dog in the UK, you should also be aware of lungworm, read more in our article ‘Lungworm in Dogs’. Intestinal worms live in the guts, eat your pet’s food and cause damage to the gut lining. Worms aren’t easy to spot and aren’t often seen until they have been treated and killed with a worming product. Treating and preventing worms is easy with regular worming tablets (or spot-on treatments). Certain dog worms can cause problems in humans. Types of worms in dogs Intestinal worms Intestinal worms live inside the intestines (guts). The two most important intestinal worms that affect dogs in the UK are roundworm and tapeworm. 1. Roundworm look like spaghetti and grow up to 15cm long. pdsa.org.uk © The People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals 12/18 PetWise Pet Health Hub - brought to you thanks to Registered charity nos. 208217 & SC037585 1/6 support from players of People’s Postcode Lottery 2. Tapeworm are flat, made up of lots of little segments joined together, and grow up to 60cm long. If your dog has tapeworm, you might see the ‘grain of rice’ size segments ‘crawling’ around your dog’s bottom. 3. Other - ‘threadworm’ and ‘whipworm’ are intestinal worms that can also affect pet dogs, but they are both rare in the UK. Lungworm If you have a pet dog and live in the UK, it’s very important to be aware of lungworm.

  • Flood Analysis of the Clare River Catchment Considering Traditional Factors and Climate Change
    Flood Analysis of the Clare River Catchment Considering Traditional Factors and Climate Change AUTHOR Pierce Faherty G00073632 A Thesis Submitted in Part Fulfilment for the Award of M.Sc. Environmental Systems, at the College of Engineering, Galway Mayo Institute of Technology, Ireland Submitted to the Galway Mayo Institute of Technology, September 2010 .... ITUTE Of TECHNOLOGY DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY September 2010 The substance of this thesis is the original work of the author and due reference and acknowledgement has been made, when necessary, to the work of others. No part of this thesis has been accepted for any degree and is not concurrently submitted for any other award. I declare that this thesis is my original work except where otherwise stated. Pierce Faherty Sean Moloney Date: 1 7 - 01" 10__ Abstract The main objective of this thesis on flooding was to produce a detailed report on flooding with specific reference to the Clare River catchment. Past flooding in the Clare River catchment was assessed with specific reference to the November 2009 flood event. A Geographic Information System was used to produce a graphical representation of the spatial distribution of the November 2009 flood. Flood risk is prominent within the Clare River catchment especially in the region of Claregalway. The recent flooding events of November 2009 produced significant fluvial flooding from the Clare River. This resulted in considerable flood damage to property. There were also hidden costs such as the economic impact of the closing of the N17 until floodwater subsided. Land use and channel conditions are traditional factors that have long been recognised for their effect on flooding processes.

  • Pseudorabies Detected in Hunting Dogs in Alabama and Arkansas After Close Contact with Feral Swine (Sus Scrofa) Kerri Pedersen1* , Clinton T
    U.S. Department of Agriculture U.S. Government Publication Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Wildlife Services Pedersen et al. BMC Veterinary Research (2018) 14:388 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-018-1718-3 CASEREPORT Open Access Pseudorabies detected in hunting dogs in Alabama and Arkansas after close contact with feral swine (Sus scrofa) Kerri Pedersen1* , Clinton T. Turnage2, Wesson D. Gaston3, Paulo Arruda4, Scott A. Alls5 and Thomas Gidlewski1 Abstract Background: Pigs (Sus scrofa) are the natural hosts of pseudorabies virus (PRV), also known as Aujeszky’s disease. Infection in mammals, with the exception of humans, typically causes extreme itching, facial swelling, and excessive salivation, followed by death in non-suid species. The risk to susceptible mammals was assumed to decrease when PRV was eliminated from U.S. commercial swine in 2004, though the virus remains endemic in feral swine. Infected feral swine pose a threat to the disease-free status of the commercial swine industry, and to other animals, including dogs, that come in direct or indirect contact with them. Since dogs are commonly used for hunting feral swine, they are at high risk of exposure. Case presentation: The following report describes the progression of pseudorabies infection in dogs in two states after exposure to feral swine. The first case occurred in a dog in Alabama after participation in a competitive wild hog rodeo. The second case occurred in multiple dogs in Arkansas after hunting feral swine, and subsequent consumption of the offal. The antibody prevalence of feral swine in the two states where the dogs were exposed is also examined.
